¹Moosese, jumalamehe palve. Issand, sina oled meile olnud eluasemeks põlvest põlve.

¹ Lord, The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.” you have been our dwelling place for all generations.

²Enne kui mäed sündisid ja kui maa ja maailm loodi, oled sina, Jumal, igavesest igavesti.

²Before the mountains were brought forth, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.

³Sina viid inimese jälle põrmu ja ütled: 'Tulge tagasi, inimlapsed!'

³You turn man to destruction, saying, “Return, you children of men.”

⁴Sest tuhat aastat on sinu silmis nagu eilne päev, kui see on möödunud, ja nagu vahikord öösel.

⁴For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.

⁵Sa uhud nad ära, nad on nagu uni, nagu rohi, mis hommikul haljendab.

⁵You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.

⁶See õitseb hommikul ja haljendab, õhtul see närtsib ja kuivab ära.

⁶In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry.

⁷Sest sinu viha tõttu me lõpeme ja su vihaleegist me ehmume.

⁷For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath.

⁸Sa paned meie pahateod enese ette, meie salapatud oma palge valguse ette.

⁸You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.

⁹Sest kõik meie päevad mööduvad su raevu all, meie aastad lõpevad nagu ohe.

⁹For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh.

¹⁰Meie päevade mõõt on seitsekümmend aastat ja kui keegi on tugev, kaheksakümmend aastat, ja parimal puhul on need ometi vaev ja häda. Jah, see möödub kähku ja me lendame ära.

¹⁰The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.

¹¹Kes tunneb su viha tugevust ja su raevu, nõnda nagu sind tuleb karta?

¹¹Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?

¹²Õpeta meid meie päevi arvestama, et me saaksime targa südame!

¹²So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

¹³Pöördu tagasi, Issand! Oh kui kaua? Halasta oma sulaste peale!

¹³Relent, Yahweh! “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “LORD” (all caps) in other translations. How long? Have compassion on your servants!

¹⁴Täida meid hommikul oma heldusega, siis me hõiskame ja oleme rõõmsad kogu oma eluaja!

¹⁴Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

¹⁵Rõõmusta meid nii palju päevi, kui sa meid vaevasid, nii palju aastaid, kui me nägime õnnetust!

¹⁵Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.

¹⁶Saagu nähtavaks su töö su sulastele ja nende lastele su auhiilgus!

¹⁶Let your work appear to your servants; your glory to their children.

¹⁷Issandal, meie Jumalal, olgu lahke meel meie vastu! Meie kätetööd ta kinnitagu meile! Kinnita meie kätetööd!

¹⁷Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands.
